I’m thrilled to report that Maine’s Governor Baldacci has signed my product stewardship bill “An Act to Provide Leadership Regarding the Responsible Recycling of Consumer Products” into law.  On March 25^th, Maine’s business and environmental communities came together to celebrate the process that went into this legislation.  Please check this link to read the remarks of Chris Jackson of Maine’s State Chamber of Commerce http://www.mainechamber.org/mx/hm.asp?id=currentnews at the signing yesterday.  Click here for an article by the national magazine Miller-McCune http://www.miller-mccune.com/politics/maine-passes-landmark-product-stewardship-law-11542/.  Plans are in the works to establish a Maine Product Stewardship Institute, to help the process going into the future.
